Jharsuguda (Odisha) [India], February 8 (ANI): The Odisha leg of the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, being spearheaded by Congress MP Rahul Gandhi, is scheduled to be completed on Thursday, party leader Jairam Ramesh said.
Taking to the social media platform, X, Congress General Secretary in-charge Communications Jairam Ramesh, said that the yatra will be on a two-day break from this afternoon.
"This morning, after going through Jharsuguda District, there will be a flag handover at Rengalpali and the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra will complete its Odisha run and move into Chhattisgarh. After 12 continuous days on the road, from this afternoon onwards, through the 9th and 10th, the Yatra will be on a break.
